I am curious as to what your opinion is of it. I had considered this however I haven't found any consistent reviews on the ICS 6, revolver-type, GL. Why not a standalone grenade launcher or a ICS 6 barreled launcher? Since the SCAR has a conventional design the FN40GL must span a longer distance for the trigger to be accessable and therefore the FN40GL envelopes the magazine well.DesertKnight wrote:You'd be pretty hard pressed to find one. Mechanically the FN40GL is similar to the GL1. The FN40GL is a modified version of the GL1 for use on the SCAR assault rifle. The GL1 can be used with conventional ladder sights or a computer sight integrated in the large F2000 sight unit. The exterior is made up of high strength plastics and a double action trigger mechanism is fitted. EGLM is a common, but officially wrong, denominatior for both the GL1 and FN40GL grenade launchers.ĭesign The GL1 is a single shot breech loaded grenade launcher that functions in a similar way as the M203. EGLM stands for Enhanced Grenade Launcher Module and originates from the US requirement for a new grenade launcher for use on the new assault rifle for use with the US special operations command. The design was later modified for as the FN40GL the SCAR assault rifle.
It was developed in the late 1990's by Fabrique Nationale as the GL1 for use on the F2000 assault rifle.
